TTC BOY November Chit Chat Thread - All welcome!!

Kris - oh I hear ya darlin, it never occurred to me I'd have one girl let alone 3! I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world, you'll love it :) I've got a snuggler, they are the best!

B- Nothing to offer?! Love is enough :)

Bec - great timing, fx!!

Lola - FX for turning dh into a super sperm factory lol

Hey everyone, AF showed up yesterday afternoon, so I am on to round two. We won't attempt this cycle, because I screwed up the diet for the entire 2WW and DH wasn't good about taking his supps--I was completely sure I was pg! I felt pg and everything. Oh well. I am stuffing my face to make up for lost time!! Next attempt will be in December.

DH and I had a great few days away. I am 2dpo at the moment. I ended up getting my first positive OPK on our first night there and we were going to attempt then and 24 hours after that. Didn't quite work out that way though because I had a migraine and bad nausea. Poor DH even had an energy drink. Anyway we DTD the next morning. Unfortunately no energy drink for DH but I'm still pretty happy with our attempt. I am so hoping for a dirty weekend away baby ;)

I hope you get that "dirty weekend away" baby! GL!

That's how I was with #3. I really held on to a shred of hope that my u/s was wrong and that she was secretly a boy. I hated telling people I was having a girl; I felt embarrassed, like I failed at making a "good" baby. Begonia, I know I probably don't seem like I should be giving advice on this, since I have a boy, but I have read a lot of your posts, and I COMPLETELY understand how you are feeling right now. A lot of what you say I could have written myself. I just wanted to tell you that there is light at the end of the tunnel. I am FINALLY starting to really enjoy my DD2 now that she is 19 months. I feel awful saying this, but for most of her first year, I really didn't enjoy her at all. :( I hate GD! I feel so guilty now for wasting all of her baby time wishing she were someone else. :(

Sorry to be TMI....I am kinda curious if mine does, because I am always accusing him of having zero sex drive, although he did surprise me last night. We've only been together for 3 years now, and my DH is pretty private about that stuff. The whole semen analysis thing was kinda awkward for us.

Oh, well, it took me a few years to figure him out. But he gets up really early in the morning (he works at 7am) and while the rest of the house is asleep, he looks at naked ladies on the computer and has fun! I accidentally caught him a couple times, when I couldn't sleep, and got up a few minutes after him. :oops: Now that he knows I know, we talk about it freely. He would be mortified to know that I am telling you all this!!

I am worried something is wrong with me :(

I have had + OPKs all day today and last night. They are VERY positive no doubt about it!

My chart shows O was 4 days ago. And I am sure I did too....

I do not feel like I am ovulating right now...

And I am only 4 dpo so there is no way the OPK is picking up on conception this early.

I am freaking out something is wrong with me :(

So so sorry I keep going on about it but this has never happened to me. After O, I get - or a faint test line, if that...

---

TTC5 - sorry...i dont know nothing about this...hope everything is fine with the doc appointment.

You would not even have implantation yet, so they are still detecting LH in your system.

---

Well last night the test was negative!!!! Who knows? Will recheck today. Def too early for hcg as implantation only starts at 5dpo at the earliest.

LOVIN' IT!!!!!!! I am so excited about the vegetarian diet....our whole family is doing it.....I have this hope that it will turn our situation around and make my DH become a super sperm factory. I've been reading about how it can change so much in your body in "The China Study," which I highly recommend!
